Our Building & Design ProcessArtful Approach

Artful Approach
Our philosophy for landscape design is at the meetingplace of wildness and order. We will evaluate your site and carefully consider its characteristics to create a truly compelling garden made to enhance your property’s character and to be admired over time.Marvelous Variety

Marvelous Variety
Most of our plants come from trusted growers. To supplement, we propagate less popular varieties ourselves at our small plant nursery. We emphasize use of locally growing plants as often as possible, but we also recognize that diversified garden arrangements featuring some novel additions often promote maximized appeal and longevity.Wildlife Minded

However, some attention may be needed at certain times to maintain design integrity and ensure ongoing plant health. Our in-house team will be available to offer support or insights at these times.What Sets Us Apart
Other local landscape designers may be able to offer gardens which look nice, but we go beyond simple looks. We pull from multiple decades of hands-on work and vast horticultural knowledge to compose gardens that are well poised to thrive in harmony, with little maintenance required as the seasons pass. Our installers orient plants with care, paying mind to how they will evolve and highlight specific other design features on your property. We feel that collaboration is crucial, and we will work closely with you to fulfill your aspirations for your unique garden.
